CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN MODELS

New Orleans body painting ace Craig Tracy transformed the backs of three models into an eye-popping image of an endangered South China tiger. It took him 24 hours — and paint specifically designed for human skin — to painstakingly replicate a photograph by Tom Mangelsen highlighting the plight of the majestic beasts. Tracy, 43, works out of his Crescent City studio, the first of its kind dedicated solely to the art of body painting.
